About the Riding
Surrey Centre was a new riding created by the 2012 redistribution, carved from the former Surrey North district. The area has undergone rapid transformation as Surrey pursues its vision of building a genuine downtown core in the Whalley–City Centre area. Simon Fraser University’s Surrey campus, which opened in 2002, anchors the educational and innovation corridor around Central City shopping centre. The riding’s population is young and ethnically diverse, with a significant South Asian community. Key local concerns in 2015 included public safety, affordable housing, and transit expansion—particularly the proposed light rail or SkyTrain extension through Surrey. The riding also includes portions of the Guildford neighbourhood, home to Guildford Town Centre, one of the largest shopping malls in the province.
